Silent Partner Technologies, a Tarpon Springs, Florida-based software developer and systems integrator of leading edge RFID applications, has today announced it has now joined forces with Percon, Inc. a recognized innovator in the AIDC/barcoding/RFID industries, to deliver a vehicle mount computer.

“By integrating our RTLS, RFID technology with Percon’s vehicle computer products into an effective forklift locator system, a warehouse manager can now instantly locate his specific forklift in any area of his expansive operation,” said Ted Kostis, president of Silent Partner Technologies.

Kostis believed that their real time locator system (RTLS) for forklifts has been proven to be very effective. “With just a few additional accessories, you can combine actuators to provide a forklift safety warning system too,” he said.

SPT has engineered their RFID RTLS for small to very large distribution areas with the objective of being effective and very affordable.

“Installation is so quick and easy that customers wonder why they have not installed it sooner. Most installations are stand-alone and require no IT involvement. The system can also bypass Wi-Fi systems and not rob bandwidth from current applications,” noted Kostis.

Meanwhile, James Budniakiewicz, Senior Partner with Percon, Inc. said that “Finding the specific forklift in a large manufacturing floor or a distribution center is very difficult and time consuming. By adding an RFID tag within our vehicle mount computer and assigning it to the SPT RTLS gives a warehouse or distribution manager a very beneficial tool.”
